Key Features

• Integrated Bright White LED Light Bar — The bumper incorporates a bright white LED light bar designed for forward illumination, allowing you to continue driving your RC car during dusk, evening, and nighttime conditions with improved visibility and safety, whilst also creating an impressive visual effect that turns heads at the track or bashing spots.
• Direct Replacement for #9035 Front Bumper — This bumper is engineered as a precise replacement for the original #9035 front bumper, meaning fitment is guaranteed and installation requires no modifications or additional fabrication work, saving time and ensuring compatibility with your existing Traxxas model.
• Premium Traxxas Quality Construction — Built to Traxxas' exacting standards, this bumper features robust engineering designed to absorb impacts and protect your RC car's front end during aggressive driving, bashing, and racing scenarios, ensuring longevity and reliability in demanding conditions.
• Requires 6588X Power Supply — The LED lighting system requires the separate #6588X power supply (sold separately), which connects to your RC car's power system to operate the light bar, giving you complete control over your vehicle's illumination setup.
• Professional Appearance and Function — Beyond protective functionality, the LED-equipped bumper elevates the overall aesthetic of your Traxxas model, giving it a more professional and purposeful appearance that reflects your commitment to quality RC equipment.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas front bumper with LED lights represents a blend of protective engineering and modern lighting technology. The bumper itself is constructed to Traxxas' rigorous specifications, ensuring it can handle the impacts and stresses associated with high-performance RC driving. The bright white LED light bar is a key innovation that transforms your RC car's capabilities, particularly for UK enthusiasts who enjoy evening and night-time driving sessions. The light bar requires the #6588X power supply to operate, which integrates seamlessly with your existing Traxxas power system. This modular approach means you have complete flexibility in your setup — you can easily remove or upgrade the lighting system without affecting the bumper's protective function. The construction is durable and designed to withstand repeated impacts from off-road obstacles, track walls, and aggressive bashing scenarios that RC enthusiasts regularly encounter. Whether you're running your model on a foam roller or concrete track, across natural terrain, or performing stunts and high-speed runs, this bumper combines impact absorption with modern functionality to give you a complete front-end solution that looks as good as it performs.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will this bumper fit my Traxxas RC car? — This bumper is a direct replacement for the #9035 front bumper, so it will fit any Traxxas model that originally used that bumper part number. Check your vehicle's manual or parts diagram to confirm your model uses the #9035 bumper before ordering. If you're unsure, our team at RC Model Shop can help you verify compatibility.
• What do I need to make the LED lights work? — The LED light bar requires the separate #6588X power supply, which must be purchased separately. This power supply connects your RC car's battery or power system to the LED light bar, allowing you to illuminate the bumper during driving. Without the #6588X power supply, the bumper will function as a standard protective bumper without LED illumination.
• Can I use this bumper without the LED lights? — Yes, absolutely. The bumper functions perfectly well as a standard protective front bumper even without powering the LED light bar. If you purchase this bumper but don't have the #6588X power supply, you'll still get all the protective benefits of a quality Traxxas replacement bumper; you simply won't have the LED illumination feature active.
• Why would I want LED lights on my RC car? — LED bumper lights offer several practical and aesthetic advantages for RC enthusiasts. Functionally, they improve visibility when driving during evening and nighttime hours, making it safer to operate your RC car in low-light conditions. Aesthetically, the bright white LED light bar creates an impressive visual effect that looks professional and stands out at RC tracks, events, and bashing locations. Many serious RC car UK enthusiasts add LED lighting as part of their customisation and setup.
• Is this suitable for all driving styles? — Yes, this bumper is engineered to handle all RC driving styles including racing, bashing, crawling, and high-speed runs. The durable construction protects your RC car's front end regardless of how aggressively you drive, making it suitable for weekend bashers and competitive racers alike.
• What is the difference between this and the standard bumper? — The primary difference between this LED-equipped bumper and the standard #9035 bumper is the integrated bright white LED light bar and the requirement for the #6588X power supply. Beyond that, the protective bumper structure is engineered to the same Traxxas quality standards. The LED lights add both functional illumination and visual appeal to your RC vehicle.
